Når dette sker, venter et større eller mindre opklaringsarbejde, for at identificere, hvilken proces der har fejlet, hvorfor den har fejlet, og hvordan det undgås at fejlen sker igen.

Du vil opleve, at vi fokuserer meget på LEAN ved f.eks. at anvende værktøjer til problemløsning, arbejde efter standarder samt anvende standardiserede principper i vores ledelse af dagligdagen.

Som supporter har du en stor kontaktflade og skal samarbejde med forskellige faggrupper både internt og eksternt i afdelingen. Det giver en udfordrende og alsidig navigation mellem disse, når opgaver skal løses.

På sigt kan der forekomme begrænset rejseaktivitet på produktionssites i udlandet og du vil ligeledes kunne komme til at arbejde med at udføre valideringsopgaver. Du får rig mulighed for selv at strukturere og planlægge din hverdag.

Kvalifikationer
Du har en baggrund som ingeniør eller lignende. Da teamet står overfor at skulle udvides kraftigt, er der plads til såvel nyuddannede som kandidater med lang erhvervserfaring.

Erfaring indenfor færdigvareproduktion af medicinalprodukter og kendskab til cGMP er en klar fordel. Ligeledes vil teknisk og automatik erfaring være en fordel. Der vil blive lagt vægt på, at du har erfaring med selvstændigt at drive opgaver, projekter og optimere produktionen. Du har en skarp analytisk sans, der sammen med dine Lean erfaringer sikrer, at du naturligt indgår i vores eksisterende forbedringskultur.

Du er hurtig til at få overblikket over komplekse processer eller problemstillinger og løser dem på en systematisk måde. Dit arbejde er i høj kvalitet, og du motiveres af at vise resultater og lukke dine opgaver til tiden. Du har endvidere den egenskab at kunne arbejde selvstændigt med svære opgaver og samtidig være en teamplayer, der gerne yder en ekstra indsats for holdet. Det er afgørende, at du er en person der går forrest og selv tager initiativ til at løse udfordringer. Dit gode humør og evnen til at skabe gode relationer sikrer, at du lykkes med dine opgaver på en god måde. Du er åben og ærlig, giver dine meninger til kende og er i stand til at give og modtage konstruktive feedback.

Du bliver en del af en spændende arbejdsplads med udfordringer, udviklingsmuligheder, engagerede kollegaer og høje krav til dig som supporter. Vi kan tilbyde et job, hvor ingen dage er ens, og hvor du har rigtig gode muligheder for at udvikle dine kompetencer.

I Novo Nordisk er det dine evner, dit engagement og dine ambitioner, der hjælper os med at forbedre mange menneskers liv. Til gengæld tilbyder vi dig muligheden for at arbejde sammen med usædvanligt talentfulde kolleger, og vi tilbyder dig en lang række muligheder for professionel og personlig udvikling.

Kan du sætte retning og være med til at sikre, at Product Supply’s multi site produktionsmiljø i Danmark overholder gældende standarder og regler indenfor el- og maskinsikkerhed? I så fald har vi et meget spændende og udfordrende job til dig.

Om afdelingen
Du bliver en del af vores Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) afdeling med base i Søborg. Vi er 23 dedikerede specialister, rådgivere og projektledere, der leverer support og rådgivning til organisationen med fokus på opfyldelse af den overordnede EHS-strategi – herunder Novo Nordisk’s særlige fokus på de tredobbelte bundlinje, hvor miljømæssigt ansvar er sidestillet med finansielle resultater og social ansvarlighed. Du bliver afdelingens omdrejningspunkt ift. specifik viden om el- og maskinsikkerhed, CE mærkning etc.

Jobbet
Du skal være den proaktive igangsætter og facilitator, ikke den tekniske ekspert. Du skal bl.a. sørge for, at vi får sat dine fokusområder højt på agendaen i et meget komplekst organisatorisk landskab med mange interessenter. Konkret skal du bl.a. gennemføre analyser samt igangsætte og gennemføre koordinerede tiltag som integreres i Novo Nordisk’s eksisterende systemer. Herunder skal du samle viden fra mange forskellige tekniske eksperter inden for el- og maskinsikkerhed og få deres input koordineret og formidlet på en måde, der skaber fælles forståelse og enighed om det fornuftige og rigtige i tiltagene.

På maskinområdet skal du koordinere udviklingen og implementeringen af systemer, standarder og værktøjer til sikring af maskinsikkerhed, herunder CE-mærkning. På el-området skal du koordinere implementering af Novo Nordisk’s SKS-A system for el-sikkerhed, så virksomheden kan opretholde autorisation til selv at udføre arbejder i henhold til Stærkstrømsbekendtgørelsens afsnit 6.

Kvalifikationer
Du har en teknisk uddannelse som ingeniør, maskinmester eller lignende og min. 3 års erfaring fra et job, hvor du har arbejdet med maskin- og el-sikkerhed inkl. koordinering af aktiviteter inden for områderne. Du trives således med selvstændigt at samle viden og koordinere aktiviteter. Det er ikke afgørende, at du har dyb teknisk viden, men du skal have en god grundlæggende forståelse for el- og maskinsikkerhed og tilhørende systemer, så du kan begå dig blandt eksperter – og sikre at du får koblet den rigtige hjælp på, når det er nødvendigt. Det er samtidig helt afgørende, at du er rigtig dygtig til at kommunikere, og at du har du den udadvendte og imødekommende personlighed, der skal til for at skabe, udvikle og drive netværk. Derudover skal du være god til engelsk, skriftligt og mundtligt.

I Novo Nordisk stræber vi efter at være de bedste. Vi er førende i verden indenfor diabetesbehandling og en væsentlig aktør på vores andre forretningsområder. Derfor kan vi tilbyde vores medarbejdere mulighed for en stærk professionel udvikling.

Du vil være ansvarlig for interne audits og myndighedsinspektioner. Du kan forvente at skulle løse både praktiske og dokumentationsmæssige opgaver herunder udarbejdelse af afvigelser, ændringssager, valideringsdokumenter og instruktioner.

Kvalifikationer
Din uddannelsesmæssige baggrund er en videregående naturvidenskabelig uddannelse, f.eks. kemi ingeniør eller farmaceut. Det vil være en fordel, hvis du tidligere har arbejdet med GMP i et produktionsmiljø eller har en baggrund i QA. Du er god til at formidle mål og planer.

Editor

- Communication & Public Affairs

Are you a journalist who is ready to start a new career managing the news flow in a major global corporation? Or perhaps you are a journalist who has made the jump to a corporate environment and are now ready to bring your skills to a new level?

If you can answer 'yes!' to either of the above, then a new position in Corporate Communications might be for you.

About the department
Novo Nordisk is not the world's biggest pharmaceutical company, but we do a lot of good things that most other companies don't. One of the missions of Corporate Communications is to find those stories, and tell the world about them.

Corporate Communications consists of 45 people working with internal mass media (which we call Employee Communications), media relations, leadership communication and film.

The job
Our new editor will be a part of the Employee Communications team, and will work closely with Media Relations, as well as other colleagues in our department and around the world.

His or her tasks will include identifying compelling, strategic stories; prioritising and scheduling them for the appropriate channels; and producing much of this content, either by writing it yourself, editing others' copy, or hiring freelancers.

Our science-driven company is full of wonderful stories. However, the pharma industry is highly regulated and very complex. So in addition to being a great journalist, our new editor must also be flexible and a good listener - sensitive to concerns from sources and colleagues, and able to compromise when needed.

Qualifications
Minimum 5 years' experience writing, editing and publishing news for print and web. Experience working with internal communication in large global organisations is a plus. Excellent written and spoken English is required; Danish skills are a plus. Experience with multimedia publishing (video, radio, social media), and a talent for numbers and statistics are a plus.

Strong interpersonal skills are key. Days can be long when a story or deadline demands it, so you must be flexible re working hours. Some travel is required.

At Novo Nordisk, your skills, dedication and ambition help us change lives for the better. In exchange, we offer you an opportunity to work with extraordinary talent and benefit from a range of possibilities for professional and personal development.

Do you like to work with continuous improvements of IT processes? Then join IT Process Office, a group of 6 enthusiastic experts within process management and quality system management.

About the department
The IT Process Office is part of the IT Governance unit in Novo Nordisk. Our main stakeholders are IT management groups and IT personnel in the global IT organisation. The group manages global IT processes, conducts IT Risk management reporting, IT audit and inspection coordination as well as training management.

The job
As IT Governance Analyst you interact with our stakeholders at all levels of the organisation. You advice and train your colleagues in the global IT organisation and work closely with process owners in maintaining and improving processes.

Your key challenges will be to contribute to the global implementation of IT processes and to the establishment and development of the global process support function in IT Process Office. You conduct continuous improvements and from time to time you take on the project manager role of strategic initiatives.

You will be responsible for one or more processes within IT, and you will act as the central subject matter expert in this area. The global IT processes have process managers and owners as well as other stakeholders around the global IT organisation and you will be responsible for supporting and helping them in assessing the process performance as well as assessing possible impact of proposed changes to processes.

You thrive in an international business environment, are comfortable with complex challenges and ambitious goals, and can stand up to the pressure that comes with taking on significant global responsibilities.

Qualifications

Senior ingeniør til højteknologiske samle- og pakkelinjer (Måløv, Danmark)

Senior ingeniør til højteknologiske samle- og pakkelinjer

- Produktion
- Danmark - Måløv

Har du solid erfaring med kvalificering, og kan du være med til at gøre vores allerede højteknologiske samle- og pakkelinjer endnu bedre? Er det dig, kan du se frem til at blive en del af et stærkt teknik-team, der sikrer stabil drift og forsat udvikling på Biopharm Tablets & Finished Products i Måløv.

Om afdelingen
Du kan glæde dig til at blive del af et voksende team, der kombinerer det bedste inden for en vifte af ingeniørdiscipliner med det bedste inden for teknik og håndværk. Vores mål er at have rendyrket verdensklasse i såvel teknologi som processer, metoder og systemer. Du bliver en vigtig medspiller i at leve op til den målsætning.

Jobbet
Dit job har fokus på to sideløbende opgaver: Kortsigtet driftssupport på den ene side og langsigtet udvikling af systemer, processer, metoder og teknik ved hjælp af LEAN og Systematisk Problemløsning (SPL) på den anden side.

Den daglige driftssupport dækker vores 11 højt automatiserede fylde- og pakkelinjer. Det handler meget om teknisk her-og-nu problemløsning, hvor du fjerner årsagen til problemet og samtidig sikrer, at vi fremadrettet undgår lignende tilfælde. Det kræver tæt dialog og godt samspil med dine kolleger, der betjener linjerne samt med dine ingeniør- og håndværker-kolleger i teamet. På udviklingsområdet gennemfører du selvstændigt små og store projekter, eksempelvis periodisk systemevaluering samt evaluering af sikkerhed og konfigurationsstyring. Herunder sikrer du konsistens og højt compliance-niveau i vores kvalificeringsdokumentation. Du udfører også risikoanalyser samt udarbejder ændringsansøgninger og kravspecifikationer, så vi altid lever op til gældende myndighedskrav. På den vis bidrager du også til vores fremadrettede strategiproces.

Kvalifikationer
Du er ingeniør og uanset baggrund har du erfaring med automatiseret pakke- og fyldeudstyr og et indgående kendskab til kvalificering og LEAN. Du kan derfor gennemskue avancerede automatik- og mekaniske systemer. Det gør, at du kortsigtet kan få en maskine hurtigt i gang, og at du langsigtet kan identificere, implementere og drive forbedringsprojekter – og dermed hæve udstyrseffektiviteten og skabe en stabil produktion. Måske har du allerede arbejdet i et GMP-reguleret miljø og har drevet egne projekter. Hvis ikke, er du mere end klar til udfordringen.

Du kommer ind i et miljø, der er kendetegnet ved et godt samarbejde på tværs af teams og faggrænser og en stor vilje til at bidrage til at nå de fælles mål. Vi regner derfor med, at du også møder med en positiv indstilling og godt humør. I afdelingen sker der hyppigt uforudsete ting, som kan medføre omprioriteringer og forandringer, så du skal have lyst og mod på en omskiftelig og til tider hektisk hverdag.

I Novo Nordisk er det dine evner, dit engagement og dine ambitioner, der hjælper os med at forbedre mange menneskers liv. Til gengæld tilbyder vi dig muligheden for at arbejde sammen med usædvanligt talentfulde kolleger, og vi tilbyder dig en lang række muligheder for professionel og personlig udvikling.

Der vil blive lagt vægt på, at du har erfaring med selvstændigt at drive opgaver, projekter og optimere produktionen. Du har en skarp analytisk sans, der sammen med dine Lean erfaringer sikrer, at du naturligt indgår i vores eksisterende forbedringskultur.

Du er hurtig til at få overblikket over komplekse processer eller problemstillinger og løser dem på en systematisk måde. Dit arbejde er i høj kvalitet, og du motiveres af at vise resultater og lukke dine opgaver til tiden. Du har endvidere den egenskab at kunne arbejde selvstændigt med svære opgaver og samtidig være en teamplayer, der gerne yder en ekstra indsats for holdet. Det er afgørende, at du er en person der går forrest og selv tager initiativ til at løse udfordringer. Dit gode humør og evnen til at skabe gode relationer sikrer, at du lykkes med dine opgaver på en god måde. Du er åben og ærlig, giver dine meninger til kende og er i stand til at give og modtage konstruktive feedback.
